Archibald Elliot (August 1760 – 16 June 1823) was a Scottish architect.

Archibald Elliot ran an architecture practice in London and Edinburgh with his brother James Elliot. Following James' death in 1810, Archibald ran the company on his own. It was later taken over by Archibald's son, Archibald Elliot Junior.

Amongst his works he contributed to many significant buildings and streets in Edinburgh including St Paul's and St George's Church, Rutland Square, the Regent Bridge, the Waterloo Hotel and Calton Prison on Calton Hill. He was also involved with work on many country houses in Scotland, including Blair Castle and Taymouth Castle in Perthshire, Loudoun Castle in Ayrshire, and Stobo Castle in Peeblesshire.[1]
